Fastest U-turn ever
The university apparently quibbled with Plato’s reference the the “Myth of Androgyne,” in which Aristophanes describes three genders.
I suppose next they’ll be banned from teaching German.
That’s fucking wild
“we must save the traditions of Western civilization” people in shambles
Yeah, not those traditions! We just meant a white country for white people!
Ironically, Plato was so distrustful of the intelligence of the common person that he had severe reservations against writing his lessons down.
His argument was that writings can be misrepresented and misused, and can’t defend themselves against it by arguing back.
Probably had something to do with the ostracization of Aristotle and Socrates as well
Nothing but the brightest in Texas
Might as well ban the New Testament. And the Constitution.
If you’re fool enough to visit Texas for education….
How do you ban a philosophical concept? Plato is going full Streisand effect in 3 2 1…
Tyrannical regimes certainly do try.
We aren’t at the Khmer Rouge stage where the government sets their students against their professors, but - never say never. The conservatives have a long, simmering hatred of intellectuals. Sure, they are a fringe minority, but it doesn’t take the majority to seize power and completely ruin the place.
Only tradition texas has, is being traitors.
